So is Secret Avengers any good?

Not really.

Brubaker's run was OK, but it ended at #12 just as it was getting good.

Nick Spencer's 4 issue fill-in run during Fear Itself was TERRIBLE.

Warren Ellis' 6 issue run was a lot of fun though, each issue is a done-in-one story that is kind of like Global Frequency but with the Avengers and he works with some fantastic artists, McKelvie, Kev Walker, Maleev, Immonen, Lark and Aja. If you pick up any of it, get this run.

Remender's run was decent, it picked up from Brubaker's and also tied into X-Force. I haven't read the last arc though yet.

Same for me, the first arc was great then the book got caught up in too many crossovers and tie-ins and I lost interest. When Hawkeye took the leader role and Venom joined the team I started getting into the book again and liked it til the end.
